    I think I’m gonna ditch my mpc 2500 for Koala

    Do you think Koala could be a good tool to chop samples on the fly? I've been looking for a wav editor or something to chop samples on my phone/tablet whenever I'm listening to music throughout the day and find something I want to flip.

    Stop using reverb on your snare.

    What's the difference between using a freq splitter vs. a high pass curve at 150Hz? I can play around with some sounds later to experiment too but genuinely curious to get folks thoughts on this as I keep tinkering and learning.

    Stop using reverb on your snare.

    I haven't done this but I'll usually EQ the reverb BUS.

    Is my name cool?

    I was called floppy for a bit when I was around 14 yo. Friend of mine peeked through the window when I was about to get my first BJ and saw me when I had a semi. Could be a great time to bring it back.

    Is my name cool?

    I'm learning so much, I guess I had it backwards the whole time. No wonder why folks never respond to my DMs over there.

    Is my name cool?

    when it comes to dusty boners, I prefer exclusive rights. but I'm open to a negotiation.

    Cheers, I'll jot those down whenever I'm shopping for a pair. Eventually I plan to mount a pair wide in the corner of the room. If I did a pano of my office, you'll see it's all windows and I'll never get proper acoustics without killing the vibe of the room, hence my decision to go with...

    Sticky Show Your Setup!

    Yeah, I do. Those are the JBL 104 BT which are pretty good if you just want a pair of reference speakers that won't break the bank. I also use a pair Sennheisser HD 400 PRO and Audio-Technica M20x headphones, alongside the HoRNet VHS headphone correction VST.

    Not much but it does the job! Also where I work all day for my real job.

    Stop using reverb on your snare.

    I rarely put reverb on the kick unless I'm going for a vibe where the drums sound distant. Very rare for me unless I'm experimenting. I'll sometimes but a hair of reverb on the drum BUS to give it a sense of space, but very little.

    Is my name cool?

    You can call me that, though I prefer when you call me Precious.

    I think I’m gonna ditch my mpc 2500 for Koala

    I'm of the school of thought that it's ultimately about whatever is easiest for you to transpose your mind to music.

    Is my name cool?

    Then I'll be able to say cool things like "Dusty Blender, real name no gimmicks."

    Beat lease grind indefinitely?

    What's "submitting to sync"?

    Beat lease grind indefinitely?

    So really both + something creative that everyone else isn't doing.

    Beat lease grind indefinitely?

    Right. The unfortunate part of the game I guess. Definitely a reminder that if I want to make any $$ with my hobby, it's just as much about being a "influencer" and trying to get 10K+ followers.
